Get the tools
The patches included in the zip should fix up cx_Freeze for a bug where it tries to load an sqlite3.dll file, and to add properly optimized base files for Python startup (In the original version the 'optimize' functionality doesn't work).
 NSIS is a tool to build the actual installer. As of NSIS version 3.05 the standard nsis available from the MINGW archive works. pacman -S mingw-w64-i686-nsis If you have version 3.04, The version in the mingw system has a bug that makes displaying of the font files during the AIO install messed up. I've created a patch, so we need to build our own.
